Mena Cargo set for take-off

Mena Cargo is a new cargo airline in Bahrain, which has recently received its AOC and will launch full operations before the end of the year. The new company is a subsidiary of Mena Aerospace, a company specialized in executive jet management and maintenance in Bahrain.

The airline's first aircraft is B737-300(F) A9C-MAE (27710), which has been in Bahrain since May 2021 for maintenance and preparations for entry into service. Before it was converted into a freighter, this B737 was part of the fleet of Southwest Airlines.

The launch of Mena Cargo is not the first attempt of Mena Aerospace of flying cargo as the company operated two B737-300Fs between 2011 and 2015.
